I know what you are all thinking and asking, How is Swift? Well I have to say that it is a massive improvement on Objective-C, and this may come as no surprise to some but as a modern language it really is a step in the right direction. It is faster, easier, and just improves you as a...

Pretty much all the apps I write now are backed by CoreData in some way or another. It is the best way of setting up and managing objects that are persisted, this allows the app to show data to the user when they are offline or in bad reception areas. Why the post? Initially I thought, well...

Apple released their own programming language ‘Swift’ over a year ago and since then I know only one person who has actually used it to develop a production app out of all the iOS developers I know. Why is this? Is it because it’s not ‘mature’ yet?
Is it that radically different from...

A selection of the best apps I have worked on in detail

Hotels.com

Hotels.com is a major brand in the hotels re-sale industry. A new version of their iOS app was needed and I got in at day one to rebuild the app from scratch.

18 Months on and it is a stable, high quality iOS app that Apple has promoted across many countries.

It has been considered as the major success of the last year from hotels.com.

This app supports over 50 different languages and 80 different countries, across all time zones.

Nike+ Fuelband

Nike built this app to connect with the piece of hardware called the 'Fuelband'. It connects over bluetooth and sends all information from it up to the server on your account.

With the latest version you can challenge your mates to a variety of activities in the day with points as the reward.

This app uses a lot of asychronous backend connectivities to connect to the servers and the device, and the team was over the size of 15 developers.

RBS

RBS is a major bank in the UK and so security is a massive factor in this iOS app.

Using the latest cryptography to secure all transactions to and from the server, encryption on the database and using all the latest techniques in masking any user text input.

This app was white-labelled so that it could be re-branded for Natwest.

Memrise

Memrise is a new and vastly improved way of learning topics.

Their selection of courses range from languages to composers, using asynchronous networking and the latest tricks within CoreData allows this app to work seamlessly under stress.

Recently featured on Apple's 'Best New Apps'.

Launch

Launch is a new Mac App that creates great looking iOS screenshots for the iOS Appstore.

Using Asynchronous methods for loading the retina views and saving out.

This is a ground breaking Mac App that makes your iOS app look great and increases the chance of Apple promoting it.
